After our weekend trip to Bozeman, we came back through Missoula and picked up a Brazilian wildflower named Debora! She is a music education student from Brazil, that I met at a workshop in Missoula, and she agreed to come teach my students in Kalispell! She spent the day with me today, teaching geography, Portugese and Brazilian folksongs to my students. Afterwards I drove her up to the top of Lone Pine to see one of my favorite places. She will see the rest of my students tomorrow. She is a lot of fun, and her English is good enough for us to tease back and forth, and crack jokes. I hope to have her visit again this summer and take her to see Glacier Park.

Because I didn't hike the whole trail, I don't have a lot of new flowers to report. The new ones at the top were Stonecrop, Alumroot, and Fuzzy-tongue Penstemon. The Lupine is getting bigger and there is more Blue Flax out, but the Blue Penstemon that I found is still in bud--waiting for more sunshine I guess.
